For people who live where aurorae are routine: do they become boring or uninteresting for you?
They are often very dim and boring but a rare Aurora like this one never gets old
Netwatcher
Well...its almost always there (atleast in the northern part of Norway) so it becomes kinda "normal"...
I wonder if there are natural events in the Midwest of the US to which I'm 'numb,' but would impress others.

We spend a really small part of our income on food and fixed expenses compared to basically anywhere else
And then you have the Taxes. Average Tax is around 38,5%
Pretty sure that's not correct. The average person do not have that high an income tax. I earn 450.000 NOK a year and have roughly 30%

What you're describing is envy. Jealousy is when you're afraid someone will take what you have. Envy is when you want what someone else has.
wozzup1223
"feeling or showing an envious resentment of someone or their achievements, possessions, or perceived advantages."
You were right about envy, but jealousy has nothing to do with being afraid someone will take what you have, it just means you have negative
A jealeous girlfriend isn't jealous because she is afraid someone will take her boyfriend?
feelings about them because of what they have. Envy does not imply negative feeling, jealousy does.
A jealous girlfriend isn't jealous because she is afraid someone will take her boyfriend?

Omgggggg also Vegas, and you're so right.
You should check out Red Rock Canyon sometime. I live up past the 215, so it's a quick drive. I try to go at least once a month.
Been there once. In the day. Not a great idea in the middle of summer.
Yeah. Me and my friends call it death valley 2.0
I've never been at night, that's a great idea! I love Mount Charleston at night. Especially during summer.

Janusha
Besides being the richest, most prosperous country on earth, there is also the nature. They dont really do big cities at all.
TiredOfTheBS
I thought Switzerland was the richest
Its like saying USA is rich because alot of money is put there while most people really arent rich. Norway is the richest any which way.
Except it will take two years for your neighbors to get up the courage to introduce themselves. Not always a bad thing, though...
CriticalNipple
Not the food ... everything except the food
Nothing wrong with the food. Except takeaway food which is crap.
SmergBlaerghl
Some of the traditional food is an acquired taste (, some of it is best left alone,) but we usually eat quite normal food.
einbandit
How come?
Kevincatalan
Do they have mac n cheese and burgers at least?
Nothing wrong with the food, unless you have a problem with no selection, super-high prices, and the worst produce in the world.
You do realize a lot of the produce is imported, right?
As it is everywhere, but compared to literally every other European country, the produce selection and quality is awful.
I totally agree about the variety in selection. I have however experienced lower quality in some countries. But yeah, not the best
AGorgonMadeMyPenisHard
Im just gonna remind you that norway is cold
Nah, depends on where.. Only -7 C here now.. (East) That is nothing, it's normal with -20 down to -30 in January
